    Horse reacting to right leg/foot!!

    There is the tiniest bump under the skin there - just been and had a good feel and it’s tiny!! Could it be an ingrowing hair?

    Absolutely fine and fine everywhere else but this one spot.

    Horse reacting to right leg/foot!!

    Vet didn’t seem to think it was in the right place and I’ve had two with ulcers in the past and they both reacted very differently so it seems odd. It’s literally a fingerprint size place she reacts. Quite happy to treat her for ulcers if needed though!!

    Horse reacting to right leg/foot!!

    Bit of an odd one. Have a lovely cob on loan. She’s been a bit wierd for a while when I put my right leg on and will snap her head round at it or you can feel her skin twitch. It’s where my heel touches her. She was very sensitive if you touched it with your hand for a week or two but now seems...

    Unsuccessful vetting

    I had a horse vetted a couple of years ago and she wasnt cheap. She was noticeably lame on a tight circle on the hard ground and when she was trotted up, you could hear she wasn’t quite sound. Vet did actually fail her - he said he couldn’t issue a vets certificate for her as she was lame. Owner...

    Sweetitch products - best ones out there

    I've got a connie x that gets bad sweet itch and rubs his mane and top of his tail a lot. He came mid summer last year so I was sort of picking up the pieces instead of starting a good game plan against it before it got hot! He's already out with a fly rug and fly mask on and Kill Itch on his...

    12hh Section A did hers in April last year. Operated on in May last year. Back in full work Sept and has been hunting all winter and doing pc stuff. Cost £2,500. 100% worth it.

    Check ligament rehab experience?

    Mine did hers on the last day hunting in April a couple of years ago. She did hers fairly badly and had an egg sized lump on the side just below her knee. Vet told me to chuck her out in the field for 2 months and then do 10 weeks walking adding 5 mins a week (I thought he meant 5 mins a day so...

    Charnwood micronised linseed - different packaging

    Has anyone bought any Charnwood linseed recently? My new bag has come in clear packaging with no writing on at all and a different BN number on the paper label. Normally the bags are white with lots of writing on! Just want to make sure I’ve been sent the one I want.

    Am i Insured or not?

    Kbis didn’t take my one off payment for catastrophe cover in September. They realised in December and asked for it again. They said I was covered the whole time and could have claimed at any point. It was their fault for not taking payment apparently.

    Frosty grass or frozen?!!

    I never turn our ponies out on frosty grass given they are both slightly laminitis prone. However, its -1 today here but the grass isn't frosty at all. So wondering whether to turn them out or not. Is it the frost on the grass we need to worry about or the temperature? Never really sure whether...

    Silhouette Saddles anyone?

    I had a lot of problems with Silhouette saddles - I sent my saddle back to have a new tree in and they sent it back 8 weeks later with the same twisted tree in. Saddle also had wonky panels. Wouldn't have another one or trust them again.
